We are a small NGO undertaking ground-breaking work, forming creative cross-sectoral partnerships and successfully leveraging project data to change global policy. But we have no legal expertise. Without Trustlaw’s introduction of Milbank, our attention would have been diverted from where we are global experts, designing cross-sectoral partnership projects, to drafting a complex international agreement. By working with Trustlaw and Milbank, we were confident that our legal work was of the same standard as our international development work and our tight budgets were spent on project delivery for marginalised communities rather than legal advice. The support was invaluable.
